Hello from Gregg C Levine normally with Jedi Knight Computers
I just tried to create an elf bootable image, using the contents of
mkelfImage-1.12.tar.gz, it caused what looked like a kernel panic when I
entered these commands from a remote Xterm, "./kexec kernel.elf". It
printed out the usual message that of the kernel exec function at work,
and the it bombed. It then caused the kernel panic, complete with the
contents of the register contents being printed out. Exactly as if the
computer was told to activate an interrupt, but there wasn't a handler
set up at that address. This is not the usual panic, that I see when
invoking the kernel exec function caused by the mkelfImage function
being run over a kernel, as supplied by, say a different version. Please
note, that I can not supply any further data at this time.
Eric, a different question. I came across a patch, mkelfImage-1.12.diff.
Also some of the other ones also have diff files, patches, available for
them, what prompted them?
What is the patch designed for? And was it applied, before the
compressed tar file, was created? I invoked it, the usual way, after
creating the directory. When it was invoked, it mentioned that it
appeared to have been already applied.
